[Claire has been working on her investigation into Twister's murder. She's complied a list of notes about what she has discovered so far. It reads as follows:

- After being cleaned up, the body was found to have several gash marks on it's chest. Some kind of animal?
- Luke seems to think that it might have been a person trying to convince us it was an animal by fabricating the extent of the wounds.
- Regardless, he definitely died by being stabbed through the heart.
- Ms. Layton has laid a claim to taking over as Prime Minister soon after the death. She is a suspect.
~~- Talking to Clive has shown that Prime Minister Twister killed him before all this happened.~~ This isn't relevant to the case? Unless it pins Clive as a suspect.
- Don Paolo claims to be the last person to have seen Twister before he died. He says he witnessed him talking to a Clive he was unfamiliar with in the lobby.
- Talk to the Clives to find out if any of them were with Twister on the day of the murder?
- Don't bother with that one annoying Clive until it becomes unavoidable.

She's frowning. Talking to all of the Clives would take ages... Feel free to give her some advice, whether you fall into the Clive category or not.]

[She leans forward on the tips of her feet.]

Maybe we could... um... that is, if you want to...

[She's leaning in close to your face now, Dimitri. :|]

[He leans downward, still holding her hands and he smiles.]

Um, if you want too...

[His voice trailed off as his face was closer to hers. He really hoped this is what she meant, but she seemed to be getting closer as well. He closed his eyes and lightly pressed their lips together, dying of anxiety.]

[Claire leans forward, defining the kiss. Yep, that was what she was after. Well done for making a correct choice with a girl, Dimitri!

They remain liplocked for several moments, before Claire draws back and slowly opens her eyes to look into his face.]

[Yes, Dimitri's rather glad he had made the right choice. He a couple different choices too.

As she pulls away, he was worried he had done something wrong, but that soft look she gave showed otherwise.]

Heh....

[And he turns bright red.]

[She reaches up to stroke his hair.]

You're really pretty good at that.

[He gives a snicker.]

Y-you think so?

[Then he reached a hand to her cheek, and before he could even stop himself, he planted another, more confident loss on her lips.]

[Reaching her arms around him, Claire leans into the kiss, cheerfully.]

[He puts his hands around her waist pulling her into him. He couldn't believe how close she was, how she was kissing back. He would faint if he wasn't so focused on the here and now.

When, he pulled away, he have a smile to her, and kept his hands on her hips and back.]

[She smiles up at him, then buries her face into his chest.]

You're warm...

Heh...

[He places one hand in here hair and keeps her into him.]

...you're beautiful...

Not as beautiful as you are...

[She closes her eyes.]

[He begins running his fingers through her hair and smiles.]

I don't know about that...

[He snickers and kisses her head.]

You are to me and that's what matters.

[She breaths out a sigh of content.]

I could stay like this for age.

[He laughs and nods.]

Yeah m-me too...

[He continues to hold her not sure what to do.]

We should... sit like this and snuggle for a while.

[He smiles and nods.]

I like that idea...

[She lets go, but takes his hand.]

Then let's~

[He follows her to wherever she wants to go.]

Where is our destination?

Well, my chair is a bit small for both of us, so it'll have to be the couch.

Heh, alright.

[He smiles and walks her to the couch, and he sits her down to cuddle her.]

[She flops against his side, like a professional snuggler, curling up.]

This is nice...

[He places his arms around her and holds her close.]

So...d-does this mean...you are fond of me?

Of course, silly! I'm very fond of you and have been for some time. Or else why would I have asked you out?

[He gives an incredulous laugh.]

I-I dunno, im just used to you not liking me...

Have I ever not liked you?
